What’s in a Chicken Nugget?

I showed this clip from Jaime Oliver’s show to my son, who loves chicken nuggets. I did it to try to explain to him why I won’t let him get McDonald’s nuggets.

He watched it with the hoped-for “eew” reaction.

Then after I explained that this is why I don’t like him to eat the nuggets from McDonalds and Wendy’s, he came up with a very logical 7-year-old’s question: “Then why do they taste so good?”

Sigh.

(I’ll put in another little plug for my “homemade fast food” chicken tenders here…make a bunch and freeze them, then pull them out and nuke as needed!)
